Demand is the willingness and ability to purchase a good at a given price.

For that occur, there has to be three things occurring: 1. a willingness to buy at that price, 2. an ability to buy at that price, and 3. an actual existing good at that price.

Again, demand does not mean "want".

And again, for the 6th time now, these are macroeconomic concepts which are you are trying to test with micro issues.
